X FACTOR star Holly Tandy has been representing a new generation and young fans are in her corner.

Talented teen Holly Tandy has been making her mark on The X Factor with her powerful vocals but her look goods have not gone unnoticed by her adoring fans either.

The 16 year old brunette wowed her thousands of followers on Instagram with a candid selfie.

Supporters gushed about her glamorous but modest look, praising her for being an ''inspiration'' to other young women.

One fan commented: ''Well done holly! Keep being fantastic, keep being humble yet recognise your exceptional talent. When people say negative things just remember they are reflecting their limitations on you…because they can't do it they feel you cant.''

''You are my favourite out of the whole competition, I have been rooting for you since your first ever audition. Seeing your grandad get so emotional when you sing is just so beautiful and makes me have a tear. Really hope you make the live shows,'' another added.

A third ''Team Tandy'' fan wrote: ''You are so beautiful from the first audition I have said you are going to be the winner backing you all the way lovely!''
